Jarvis Cocker, Sheffield’s greatest son (after J. G. Ballard), has been awarded an honorary doctorate at Sheffield Hallam University. Quite a kudos after recently being an honorary BBC news presenter. I’m not sure what he’s teaching but I have a feeling his classes would be legendary or make you feel all pervy and wrong depending on what gender you were.

The NME reports:

Jarvis Cocker is to be awarded an honorary doctorate at Sheffield Hallam University this November.

Sheffield-born Cocker credits the establishment ?
